Abstract

At the moment the devices for hand rehabilitation could be counted on the fingers of one hand: worse than this, they neither exert enough force for hypertonic patients nor are easy to wear for neurological patients.

HES proposes the development and validation of a Hand Exoskeleton for post-stroke rehabilitation. In fact, we have already developed an exoskeleton for neurological rehabilitation and we are now proposing to implement an “assist-as-needed” control, to develop serious games, and to test these improvements in a clinical environment in order to have a usability assessment.
